Our stay was amazing!! The house and property were both spacious and beautifully maintained. The beds and furniture were all so comfortable. We had seven people staying there and family over to visit, as well and it was plenty big enough for everyone to mingle and not feel on top of each other. The host, Anna, was super friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure each person had a great experience. I highly recommend staying here!!

Clean home, plenty of parking, comfy beds, kitchen has all the essentials. I like how there is a pampered chef can opener in drawer! The backyard is beautiful with occasional wild life. The front of lawn has magnificent huge trees! Our family enjoyed our stay! We had so much fun at the lazy river tubing down the road! Our host was very helpful and blessed us with a sweet watermelon!

The property was beautiful. As soon as we pulled up I believe it was a nutria we seen by the river. Deer came out in the evening as well as beavers. And the lightning bugs were everywhere… the house was clean and was more beautiful than the pictures.

Great home

The house was perfect for us as a family group was in town to handled the affairs of a deceased relative. It provided a well-equipped place to relax and discuss things after several trying days. And Anna provided us with strawberry shortcake! We would rent again.

Fantastic family property

Perfect home for our family (6 adults + 2 babies). Everything was very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very kind and left music playing and fresh fruit in the fridge. Really enjoyed the lovely backyard and porch area. We were in town for a family wedding and the location was very convenient for all the weekend activities.

We loved everything about our recent stay. Our family was in town for the National Softball Tournament and Anna could not have been more amazing!! Our only regret was not having more free time to enjoy relaxing in the beautiful yard. We saw baby fawns nursing with mom during the first few minutes of our arrival, a spectacular night time firefly experience my kids loved, and peace and quiet while having drinks on the patio several nights. The house itself was exactly what we needed. Amazingly comfortable beds in each of the 4 bedrooms, a comfortable living room and kitchen to hang out in - which included delicious home made chicken salad Anna left for us as a treat. I do not have enough kind things to say about her as a host or person. She was warm and quick to respond to every question and request we made - including a late night visit from our circus when we accidentally locked ourselves out (sorry again Anna!!). Truly a week we will never forget. I’m not sure we will ever get back to this beautiful area of Tennessee but if we do I can promise you that we know exactly where we plan on staying! Absolutely fantastic experience and a top notch host.
